Re: Chinese travel snacks

Fug,
I was riding my bike in one of the most heavily populated cities on earth. Mongkok is a motherfucker to navigate around people. There are two kids of people there. Those that see you coming and freeze and those who dart. The only way to compenstate is to aim for their rear heel and hope for the best. Also, intoxication can be an exponentialy inhibiting factor. A short wheel base would be ideal. So my 29er is about the worst choice.

But man, its a trip at night. The smells and sounds and energy are intoxicating on their own. I yell MO GAO CHOR AH! (what the fuck) and laugh as I run lights and cut off taxi cabs.

I own four bikes now. One in every city that I hang my hat. I have not been to the usa in 1.5 years and its getting easier not to look back.

About big jonny

The man, the legend. The guy who started it all back in the Year of Our Lord Beer, 2000, with a couple of pages worth of idiotic ranting hardcoded on some random porn site that would host anything you uploaded, a book called HTML for Dummies (which was completely appropriate), a bad attitude (which hasn’t much changed), and a Dell desktop running Win95 with 64 mgs of ram and a six gig hard drive. Those were the days. Then he went to law school. Go figure.
